Emotional Attunement & Empathy
Powered by RedCircle
In this episode, Marnie and Duane discuss why emotional attunement is a necessary component for relational healing and why the” right words” without a felt sense of compassion for what your partner is experiencing and feeling just isn’t enough. They also explore the role of empathy in emotional attunement and why compassionate empathy is crucial to healing partner and relational trauma.
In the podcast, there was mention of tools for communication, one was a dialogue. I missed the name, could this information be emailed to me. Thanks so much
I believe we mention the Imago Dialogue developed by Dr. Harville Hendrix.
I have been married for 33 years. Three years ago I found out about my husband’s sexual betrayal which had gone on for years. He visited prostitutes and escorts and had sex with married women.
I have tried to make the relationship work but I can’t. The stress of waiting to be let down again is too much and we have separated.
He is working on being sober but his acting out is so covert I feel I can never trust him.
I’m so sorry to hear that, Susan. I hope that he can listen to and understand the impact of betrayal trauma.
You also mentioned a dialogue from someone that “sounded” like Pia Mility? LOL does that ring a bell?
